Leeds Draw 1-1 at Brentford on Calvert-Lewin Goal

Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored for the fourth consecutive Premier League match to rescue a point for Leeds United in a 1-1 draw against Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium on Sunday.

The visitors, who had lost six of their previous seven away games, fell behind in the 70th minute when Jordan Henderson netted his first goal for the club after a deflection. But Calvert-Lewin headed home Wilfried Gnonto's cross eight minutes from time to secure a share of the spoils and extend Leeds' unbeaten run to three matches.

The first half unfolded in cautious fashion, with both sides prioritizing defensive solidity amid the high stakes at the bottom of the table. Brentford started brightly, as captain Nathan Collins headed over from a corner in the second minute. Leeds gradually grew into the contest, creating the better opportunities. Noah Okafor tested goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher with a low drive in the 28th minute and soon after beat Vitaly Janelt to set up Jayden Bogle for a near tap-in, only for Kelleher to make a vital block.

Tension mounted in the 34th minute when referee John Brooks awarded Brentford a penalty after Dango Ouattara went down under contact from Gabriel Gudmundsson....
